The company, known for its commitment to providing high-quality products at affordable prices, is now producing over 80 million packs of its flagship Softcare sanitary pads each year. This increase solidifies Softcare’s position as a leading provider in the Ghanaian market, offering a locally produced alternative to more expensive imported brands.
Championing Affordability and Local Production
Softcare’s sanitary pads have become a popular choice among Ghanaian women and girls, largely due to their premium quality and cost-effectiveness. The brand offers prices 30-40% lower than imported alternatives, making essential hygiene products more accessible. The company’s commitment to local production is further underscored by its impressive workforce of nearly 4,000 employees, with 90% being Ghanaian and 40% being women. Softcare’s dedication to quality has also earned it the Ghana Standards Authority certification and recognition from prominent figures like Comfort Doyoe Cudjoe, First Deputy Majority Whip, and Dr. Agnes Naa Momo Lartey, the current Gender Minister, following their visit to the manufacturing facility.
This expansion highlights Softcare FM Manufacturing’s significant contribution to Ghana’s economy and its commitment to empowering women by providing affordable and reliable sanitary products. The company’s growth demonstrates the potential of local manufacturing to meet essential needs while creating employment opportunities within the country.
